Pickle Master

Use this pickling liquid to make pickles out of any fresh, ripe vegetable you choose and store for up to two months in the refrigerator. By adding a variety of herbs and spices to the vegetables, you can create the pickles of your dreams.

Make the Pickle Master: Combine all ingredients plus 2 cups water in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and the mixture just begins to boil. Pour hot liquid over the desired combination of vegetables, herbs, and spices, let cool, cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 weeks before opening. Once opened, pickles will keep refrigerated for up to 2 months.
